53. Not sad at all
Wonderful memories. I was a bit bummed that I didn't get to perform the part but that's showbiz. I was sad that club closed down but I had an extraordinary time while it lasted. I once asked Julie why she never sang that Cole Porter song during her act and she got a far off look and changed the subject. The fact that she called me out and told the audience she was singing it for me - that was one of the highlights of my life.
